Cards

Cards are a styling option that transforms your pages into visually distinct, card-like elements within your documents. Use them to create appealing layouts by giving pages different backgrounds, colors, previews, or formats.

Backgrounds

Cards can be customized with three background types:

• Solid colors: pick from the color palette or set a custom color.
• Unsplash images: search and select professional photos directly inside Craft.
• Your own images: upload an image from your device.

You can also leave a card with no background for a clean, minimalist look:

Preview styles

A card’s preview controls how its content appears on the parent page. Choose from five options:

• Standard: the default preview, showing the title and a snippet of the card’s content.
• Emoji: pick up to four emojis to display on the card instead of the text preview.
• Book: styled like a page from a book.
• Sticky note: styled like a yellow notebook page.
• Gallery: a collage showing up to three images from inside the card instead of the text preview.

​

Card formats

Cards come in five formats that change how prominently they appear in the document. Mix and match them to create hierarchy and visual interest.
